Every Missed Call = Money Gone
While you're under the sink or on a ladder, competitors are stealing your jobs
You can’t answer without risking the tattoo (or the sterile setup).
When you’re lining or shading, grabbing a phone breaks focus and hygiene. That “quick call” becomes a mistake you’ll fix for free—or a bad review.
Every missed call is a booked appointment at the shop down the street.
Most new clients won’t leave a voicemail. They call the next studio and book. One missed medium piece ($300–$800) can wipe out your week of “saving money” on reception.
After-hours inquiries vanish—exactly when people finally have time to book.
Evenings + weekends are when clients scroll designs and get serious. If they hit voicemail Friday night, they’re booked somewhere else by Saturday morning.

Your AI Receptionist That Never Sleeps
Answers while you’re tattooing (no interruptions)
Forward missed/busy calls and SkipCalls picks up instantly—so you keep your hands steady and your client experience clean.
Captures the details that actually matter
Name, idea, placement, size, style references, timeframe, budget range, and whether they’re ready to pay a deposit.
Books consults + appointments into your calendar
Set your rules (consult first, deposit required, session length). The AI schedules without the back-and-forth.
After-hours receptionist for late-night planners
Open or closed—doesn’t matter. Your shop still “answers” and wins the booking before competitors respond tomorrow.

Give it your studio’s aftercare and escalation rules. It can triage concerns and flag true urgencies for you.
Spam + telemarketer shield
Automatically filters obvious robocalls so you only see real clients and real opportunities.
“I used to miss calls all day because my hands are literally busy. SkipCalls started catching the ‘can you fit me in this week?’ cover-ups and last-minute touch-ups, and it books consults without me stepping away from the chair. We recovered about $8.7k in work in the first month just from calls that would’ve hit voicemail.”

Questions? Answers.
What’s the #1 problem this solves for tattoo artists?
+
Missed calls while you’re tattooing. If you can’t pick up, the client books with the next shop. SkipCalls answers instantly, captures details, and books the consult so you stop losing work to voicemail.
Will this replace my business number?
+
No. People still call your normal number. You simply set call forwarding so SkipCalls answers only when you can’t (busy, missed calls, after-hours, etc.).
Will customers know it’s AI?
+
Usually no—SkipCalls sounds like a real assistant. If it’s ever unsure, it stays professional and tells the caller you’ll follow up. You also get the full transcript so nothing gets lost.
Can it book consults and appointments on my calendar?
+
Yes. You set your booking rules (consult required, deposit policy, session lengths, days you take walk-ins), and the AI schedules accordingly.
Can it handle true emergencies like a piercing swelling issue or a last-minute cover-up before an event?
+
Yes—with your instructions. It can triage, share your approved care guidance, collect photos/notes via text follow-up, and flag you immediately when something needs a human decision.
What if someone is just price shopping (“How much for a sleeve?”)?
+
SkipCalls can qualify them: placement, size, style, timeline, budget range, and whether they’re ready for a deposit. You’ll know who’s serious before you spend time.
How fast can I set it up?
+
About 60 seconds. Turn on call forwarding and choose when the AI answers (missed calls, busy calls, after-hours). No hardware, no new phone system.
Do I need technical skills?
+
No. If you can change a setting on your phone, you can set up SkipCalls. You can also customize your greeting and rules with simple prompts.
What carriers/phone systems does it work with?
+
Any carrier or phone system—no exceptions. If it can forward calls, it works.
How does texting work for tattoo references and follow-ups?
+
Call forwarding only forwards calls, not texts. The best flow is: the AI answers the call, then automatically texts the caller from the SkipCalls number so they can reply with references and questions—and the AI can keep responding.
Is it really worth it for a tattoo shop?
+
If you miss even one medium piece ($300–$800) because you were mid-session, it already paid for itself. SkipCalls costs $199/year and captures bookings 24/7 without hiring staff.
Stop losing bookings while you’re holding a needle.
Turn on SkipCalls today and let your AI receptionist answer, qualify, and book—while you focus on the tattoo.
